Prince does not come

Just as Xuan Yunqi reached the gate of Qingya Courtyard, Long Si chased after him, grabbed Xuan Yunqi, and asked eagerly, "How are you doing?"

Xuan Yunqi stared at Long Si's mask, when did he put it on?Hearing Long Si's words again, he felt very inexplicable, shook his head and said, "No, what's wrong?"

Long Si was still flustered, and shouted: "Feng Yu, go and call Yun Sha over!"

"Yes" Feng Yu replied, and hurried to the Sanqi Courtyard.

Seeing Xuan Yunqi was even more puzzled, "What happened?"

Long Si looked at Xuan Yunqi carefully, seeing that his face was normal and his thinking was clear, he was slightly relieved, "Go in first."

As soon as the two of them entered the inner courtyard, Yunsha came, "My subordinates see the prince and concubine"

Long Sidao: "Come here and show him"

Didn't you just read it?Yun Sha stepped forward and took Xuan Yunqi's pulse, "The princess is just overtired, she will be fine if she rests more."

Long Sidao: "Just overtired?"

Yun Sha nodded, "Princess Wangfei is a little weak, and she will be exhausted after a sudden violent exercise."

Xuan Yunqi's mouth twitched when he heard Long Si's question, did he think he was slightly ill?

Long Si was silent for a moment, "Let's go back to the Danqing Courtyard" after finishing speaking, he got up and left, Yun Sha naturally followed behind Long Si.

Xuan Yunqi was curious and got up to follow.Unexpectedly, Long Si said: "Wangfei can rest assured to take care of her body in Qingya Courtyard these days."

Is this going to be grounded again?Xuan Yunqi was startled, "Why?"

Long Si didn't answer, and left with Yunsha.

Xuanyun Qixin was unwilling, so he raised his foot and followed, but when he reached the door, he was stopped by the guards, "Princess, please go back."

Long Si walked to the gate of Qingya Courtyard, and told Feng Yu: "No one is allowed to enter Qingya Courtyard without my order."

"Yes" Feng Yu replied calmly, hearing the seriousness in Long Si's tone, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, did something happen again?

Long Si and Yun Sha went back to the Danqing Courtyard, and saw the black blood on the table dripping down to the ground, a small patch had already formed on the ground, like grinding a black inkstone.

Such a deep black can only be so poisonous, Yunsha was shocked, and hurried in.Saw a bird penetrated by chopsticks and died on a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Yun Sha took out the silver needle and pierced it into the belly of the bird. When he took it out, the silver needle was already pitch black. Then he pierced the silver needle into the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Even the silver needle almost melted.

Someone actually wanted to murder the prince, Yunsha's face was gloomy, "My lord, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is poisonous, may I ask you where the osmanthus cake came from?"

Long Si said: "Go and find out what kind of poison it is, and why is it okay for someone to eat it?"

fine?Yun Sha was even more shocked, how could such a poison be all right, and thinking of Long Si's worry about Xuan Yunqi just now, he asked, "Princess ate this sweet-scented osmanthus cake?"

Long Si nodded slightly, "Ask Li Qing to come over here."

Lu Ming was shocked when he saw the black blood on the ground.He quickly responded, "Yes" and hurried away.

After a while, Li Qing walked in, looking at the black blood on the ground, his heart skipped a beat.Seeing that everyone was safe and well, although he was annoyed, he was still relieved and asked, "My lord, what happened?"

Yun Sha glanced at Long Si, "Someone poisoned the sweet-scented osmanthus cake"

Long Si said: "The envoys of the Qi State have come, and the emperor ordered me to welcome them. I will leave this matter to you to investigate, don't startle the snakes by making mistakes."

Who wants the regent to greet him in person?Li Qing frowned invisibly, nodded in response: "Yes"

After Long Si finished his orders, he went to the main room to change into the Prince's clothes.This is the first time for Prince Qi Gu Cheng to come to Liang, although the emperor does not need to greet him, he should not be neglected, when everyone was discussing, Chen Guili persuaded Long Yuan to let Long Si go to greet him.

Xuan Yunqi thought about it carefully in the room, and felt that Long Si's attitude today was very abnormal, so he asked Shu Ning to inquire about the situation.

As a result, Shu Ning met Li Qing at the door before he walked out of Qingya Courtyard.

Shu Ning hurriedly saluted, "Li Butler"

Li Qing nodded, "My lord said that he likes the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by the princess today. Do you have any more?"

Why did the prince forbid the princess' feet if he liked it?Shu Ning was a little happy but also a little uneasy, and replied respectfully: "Go back to the butler, the osmanthus cake in the courtyard is gone, can I go out and buy some osmanthus cakes now?"

Li Qing asked, "You made the sweet-scented osmanthus cake?"

Shu Ning nodded, "It's what the servants did."

Li Qing asked again: "Nowadays in midsummer, there is no sweet-scented osmanthus, why do you think of making sweet-scented osmanthus cake?"

The more Shu Ning listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. How could this be like a prisoner being interrogated?She didn't dare to hide anything, and quickly explained: "Back to the butler, the princess gave the princess a recipe for osmanthus cake, saying that the prince likes osmanthus cake, but she couldn't make it, so she gave the recipe to the princess."

Ji Caiyue?Why is this matter still related to her?Li Qing frowned slightly: "Show me the recipe"

Shu Ning said: "The recipe is in the kitchen"

"Go get it"

Shu Ning hurried to get the recipe and presented it to Li Qing.

Li Qing took it over and took a look. The ingredients used were all common things, and there was nothing unusual.Li Qing asked again: "Where did you buy that sweet-scented osmanthus?"

Shu Ning replied, "I just bought it on the street."

Li Qing nodded: "My lord loves the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you made, so you are making more preparations."

"Yes" Shu Ning bowed his head in response.

After Li Qing left, Shu Ning took the money and left the mansion.Looking at Shu Ning's back, Li Qing whispered: "Yun Xun, follow her"

Shu Ning didn't meet anyone selling sweet-scented osmanthus on the way out of the mansion, so he had no choice but to go to Zuiyue Tower.

The Xiao Er of Zuiyue Building warmly welcomed Shu Ning in, and asked, "Girl, what do you want to eat?

Shu Ning shook his head: "I don't eat, I want to buy some sweet-scented osmanthus."

Xiao Er is still enthusiastic: "Girl, go to the hall first, and I will ask the shopkeeper."

"Thank you" Shu Ning replied politely, found a secluded corner and sat down.

"Girl, you're welcome." Xiao Er smiled and went upstairs.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Er carried a small basket and walked towards Shu Ning. Before he got close, Shu Ning smelled a strong fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.Shu Ning was overjoyed, and quickly stood up: "Thank you, brother."

Xiao Er handed the basket to Shu Ning: "Miss, you are welcome. Our shopkeeper just bought a little too much osmanthus fragrans today. Anyway, I can't use it tomorrow. Since the girl wants it, I can give it to the girl."

Shu Ning shook his head again and again: "How can I do that? Osmanthus fragrans are rare at this time of year. It is already very good that you are willing to sell them to me. How can I let you give them to me for nothing?"

Xiao Er looked at Shu Ning with a three-point smile: "Since our shopkeeper has already said it, you can accept it, girl."

Shu Ning was still about to decline, but at this time another guest came in and called out: "Xiao Er"

Xiaoer was busy welcoming the guests, so he said again: "Miss, you are welcome." After saying that, he hurried to greet the guests.

Shu Ning still felt sorry, so he took a piece of broken silver and put it on the table, and then returned to the palace with the basket.

When Shu Ning returned to Qingya Courtyard, Xuan Yunqi was looking at the sky in the courtyard.

The clouds were low and thick, the air was humid and hot, and there was a storm coming.

"Princess" Shu Ning walked towards Xuan Yunqi with a tangy scent of sweet-scented osmanthus.

Xuan Yunqi looked at the basket Shu Ning was carrying, "Do you want to make osmanthus cake again?"

Shu Ning nodded: "Back to Wangfei, butler Li said that Wangye really likes the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes sent by Wangfei, so he ordered the servants to make some."

like?Xuan Yunqi looked at Shu Ning suspiciously, did Long Si express his liking by restraining his feet?

Shu Ning saw that Xuan Yunqi's expression seemed suspicious, and asked hesitantly: "Princess, what...what's the matter?"

Xuan Yunqi saw that the golden osmanthus in Shu Ning's basket was different from the one used in the morning, so he asked, "Why is it different from the one in the morning?"

Shu Ning didn't understand either, he only knew that it was all sweet-scented osmanthus.Looking at the sweet-scented osmanthus in the basket, he asked, "Princess, is there something wrong?"

Osmanthus osmanthus and gold osmanthus are all the same, Xuan Yunqi said: "It's okay, let's go."

At this time Shu Yu ran over in a panic, gasped and asked eagerly: "Princess, has anyone cooked Dangui for food today?"

Seeing Shu Yu's anxious expression, Shu Ning was a little puzzled: "I made the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, what's wrong?"

Shu Yu was even more anxious when he heard the words, "Osmanthus osmanthus is poisonous, has anyone eaten it?" Osmanthus osmanthus is very poisonous, and eating a small amount will not cause any serious problems, but this is in the palace, and any mistake will cost you your head .

When Shu Ning heard this, he immediately knelt down in fright, "Princess, slave..." Shu Ning was startled and panicked. The princess not only ate it, but also served it to the prince. It is a great crime to punish the nine clans.

Xuan Yunqi frowned, "Is it really poisonous?" His mother was allergic to osmanthus, so there was not a single osmanthus tree in Xuanguo Palace, and everyone in Xuanguo boycotted osmanthus one after another in order to express their sincerity, resulting in the entire Xuanguo being destroyed. A few osmanthus trees, so Xuan Yunqi didn't know if the osmanthus was poisonous.

Seeing this scene, Shu Yu also knew that Xuan Yunqi must have eaten it, and she was so flustered that she quickly knelt down, "Shu Yu would never dare to lie to the princess."

No wonder Longsi didn't eat any of it today, it turned out that he knew it was poisonous.But he was not poisoned, no wonder Ryuji was so surprised just now.Xuan Yunqi smiled happily and bitterly, that's how the grounding came about.

Xuan Yunqi looked at Shu Ning and Shu Yu who were kneeling on the ground, "Get up"

Shu Ning and Shu Yu didn't dare to get up, and Shu Ning was so frightened that tears came out, he choked up and said: "Princess, I will go find Mr. Yunsha to show you."

Xuan Yunqi said: "No need, I'm fine."

Hearing Xuan Yunqi's words, Shu Ning felt a little relieved, and quickly kowtowed to beg for mercy: "Princess, I really don't know that osmanthus is poisonous, please take it lightly."

Xuan Yunqi sighed in his heart, "Get up, I believe in you. It's getting late, let's make dinner."

Shu Ning and Shu Yu were grateful and rejoiced, they put their hands on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, Princess" After saying that, they got up and hurried to the kitchen.

Xuan Yunqi looked at the emerald green orange trees in the courtyard, his eyes suddenly dimmed.He couldn't figure it out, why did Long Si let him eat the osmanthus even though he knew it was poisonous?

When Long Si led the people from the Ministry of Rites to the gate of Jianglou City, it was already dusk.Under the city gate, there was a heroic man in a purple dress looking up at the writing on the gate. It was Gu Cheng, Prince of Qi.

Before Long Si approached, Gu Cheng smiled at Yan Yan and looked at Long Si, "Regent, I have long admired you."

Long Si also said politely: "The prince has been waiting for a long time."

Gu Cheng smiled heartily, and jokingly said, "Not long ago, it's only been two hours."

It was already half a day after two hours, Zhang Wenshen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, hurried forward: "The prince has come from a long way, and the boat and car are exhausting, please go into the city and rest."

Gu Cheng smiled and said, "I heard that the Prince Regent's Mansion is full of orange trees. I'm a little curious. I don't know if I can bother you for a few days."

"This..." Zhang Wenshen was a little at a loss for words. It stands to reason that foreign envoys would stay in specially arranged embassy when visiting. There is no reason to live in the prince's mansion, and the majestic regent came to welcome the envoys. , but as a minister, he can't control these things, so he had to look up at Longsi and ask for his opinion.

Long Sidao: "The orange tree in the palace is not growing well, don't spoil the prince's elegance."

Gu Cheng stood where he was, without moving a step, "My lord is humble, how can it be bad for him to take care of himself?"

Zhang Wenshen saw that Gu Chengda looked like he would not enter the city unless Long Si agreed, so he was unavoidably anxious, as it was getting late today, if he delayed, he might be suspected of being improper.

Long Si glanced at Zhang Wenshen, "The crown prince is willing to go, and the palace will welcome you."

Gu Cheng said with a hearty smile: "Your Highness, please."

Zhang Wenshen hurriedly asked someone to take all the maids and servants from the Sifang Pavilion to the palace, and he hurried to the palace first. The envoys had just arrived, so they couldn't be neglected.

Xuan Yunqi had dinner and was admiring the moon in the courtyard. Hearing the excitement outside the courtyard, he asked casually: "What happened in the mansion?"

Feng Yu said: "Back to the princess, it is Gu Cheng, the Crown Prince of Qi, who is here."

"Gu Cheng?" Xuan Yunqi was a little surprised, how could the Prince of Qi live in the Prince Regent's Mansion?Then he let out another long sigh, feeling a little sad in his heart, remembering that when he was a child, Gu Cheng also went to Xuan Kingdom with the king of Qi, and the two played together for a month, but now that Gu Cheng led his ministers to Liang, he was trapped Look at the moon here.

Originally, Long Yuan was supposed to meet Gu Cheng on the second day, but Shuangxi sent the news early the next morning that Long Yuan was ill and could not meet the envoys for the time being, so the regent had to take care of him.

Long Si was not proficient in literature, and Gu Cheng was not proficient in martial arts, so the two could only drink tea in the courtyard to pass the time.

Xuan Yunqi was grounded in the Qingya Courtyard bored and unable to do anything, so he just took a book to read, which was the "Miscellaneous Records of the Far Sea" that Shu Ning brought back that time. Seeing that pair of monkfish felt mocking.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and Xuan Yunqi had just woken up from his afternoon nap when Shu Ning came in to report: "Princess, concubine Ji and the concubine are here."

Princess?Xuan Yunqi yawned and suddenly thought she was his princess, but he clearly hasn't married yet.Then he remembered that Gu Cheng married Lin Xin'er, the daughter of Prime Minister of Qi State years ago, and quickly asked, "Prince and concubine of Qi State?"

"Yes"

Xuan Yunqi said: "Please come in quickly." He is now the princess, and his family members should receive him.

Shu Yu arranged the clothes for Xuan Yunqi before Xuan Yunqi went to the main hall. After waiting for a while, Ji Caiyue and Lin Xin'er walked in dignifiedly.

"Concubine" "See Princess Sister"
